Don't Turn Out Like Your Mother Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]You're a grown woman
Good at what [C]you do
I'm [G]happy as hell
When I'm alone [C]with you
As you stroke [G]my body
And soothe [C]my brow
With [G]everything
That the [C]law will allow
I [G]pray, "Don't turn [C]out like
[G]your mother"

[Verse 2]
You're [G]a grown woman
[C]Good at what you do
I'm [G]happy as hell
When I'm [C]alone with you
As you stroke [G]my body
And [C]soothe my brow
With [G]everything
That the [C]law will allow
I pray, [G]"Don't turn [C]out
like your mother[G]"

[Verse 3]
I'm [G]a grown man
[C]Over 21
I've [G]got an ugly face
But I have [C]a lot of fun
So if [G]spill a glass
[C]Or break a dish
I [G]hear your voice
And [C]I make this wish
[G]Please, "Don't turn [C]out
like your mother[G]"

[Verse 4]
Don't turn [D]out
Don't turn out
[C]Don't turn out like you[G]r mother
I couldn't stand it
[D]And I'll be damned if
[C]I'm gonna live with [G]another

[Verse 5]
[G]So many woman
[C]Give you so much
Civ[G]ilized ways
And [C]a gentle touch
A dif[G]ferent perspective
That's as [C]bright as a button
But then you [G]wake up one morning
And it [C]all counts for nothing
'Cause [G]she's turned [C]into
her [G]mother

[Verse 6]
Don't turn [D]out
Don't turn out
[C]Don't turn out like your mot[G]her
I couldn't stand it
[D]And I'll be damned if
[C]I'm gonna live with [G]another[C]

[Verse 7]
It's not the way she [C]looks
It's not the food she cooks
Her kind of indignation
Don't cause me trepidation
But to live with a woman like this
Would take a masochist
Or someone who could get and could stay permanently [D]pissed,

[Interlude 1]
yeah
[D][G][C][G]
[C][F]

[Verse 8]
[G]It's[C][G][C][F]
[G][C][G][C][G]
[C]not the way she looks
It's not the food she cooks
Her kind of indignation
Don't cause me trepidation
But to live with a woman like this
Would take a masochist
Or someone who could get and could
stay permanently [D]pissed, yeah

[Verse 9]
You're a [G]grown woman
And you're good [C]at what you do
I'm [G]happy as hell
When I'm [C]alone with you
As you stroke [G]my body
And [C]soothe my brow
With [G]everything
That [C]the law will allow

[Verse 10]
I'm a [G]grown man
I'm [C]over 21
I've [G]got an ugly face

So if [G]spill a glass
Or [C]break a dish
Don't get [G]on to me
Like some har[C]anguing witch

[Verse 12]
[G]It's not her looks
[D]Or the way she cooks
[C]That wakes me up in a cold swe[G]at
It's just the knowledge
[D]That if it happened
I [C]couldn't drink enough to for[G]get
